i wish its true i like that comments South Padre Island, Texas is a further island additional south than Galveston and incredibly close to the border of South america. This island also has the enjoyable atmosphere and a lot of retailers for you to visit and hotels to keep in. Everyone buying to surf in Texas that is right now experienced in the activity will want to strongly contemplate getting their coastal browse excursion in Southern Padre. The beaches in Southern Padre like eight-twelve foot waves 12 months round, or more to 15 foot waves in tropical storm disorders.

Thumbs up Dloo! I absolutely agree…

Have you noticed the humility and the way an Indian would receive a foreigner in their country? They give them the best of the best from their land, and treat them with great respect and honour.

Why can’t the Europeans also do the same to their foreigners?

I don’t think international students are intentionally asking to be singled out, yet alone being attacked! what most people fail to understand is the difference in culture between asians and non-asians. first of all, us asians come from a collective society, which means we want to belong to a group. i’ve noticed many times, and have experienced, how hard it is to break into a new group. i was attending newcastle uni and boy, it was DIFFICULT for me to make friends with locals, including those from my class whom i spent the whole semester with, as well as so-called support groups who offer to help international students ‘feel at home.’

i agree that there are those who are abroad so they could eventually become naturalized and hold a pr or change citizenship. then again, have you ever actually gone through the requirements to become a PR? you’ll be surprised at how complicated and difficult the process is. on the flip side, why is the country still offering PRs to international students? I’m guessing the country’s work force is in the decline. I mean, there wouldn’t be anyone applying to be a resident of a country if there wasn’t a need.

i remember how bad the situation was at my uni, to the point where the uni had to provide transportation for international students who finished class after 6 pm. this came about after an international student was mugged outside the UNI library, within the UNI compound.

what was the local authorities’ explanation? they repeatedly mentioned that us international students were ‘soft targets’ and we wouldn’t retaliate. well how is an international student and i’m talking about ONE, supposed to retaliate when you have a whole gang up against you?
